Borsos,
    Truly spectacular paint job, I really like what you've achieved with this scheme. A very simple little Kit being turned into a very impressive model, my compliments on some very talented modelling!
Cheers,
Lance

to my eye, most stunning thing about that bus is how you've managed to give a sense of the materials.


what are you doing to make that happen? the metal looks very different to the doped linen. maybe it's just carefully controlled level of gloss.

on the other hand, maybe you've sold your soul and it's magic.

My apologies Andreas, but I have been off form (and forums) of late and have just caught up. I truly admire the skills that you display in your models - everything about them is just right. As Jeff has commented, the way in which you have represented thre metal of the cowling and the fabric of the rest is truly remarkable. Your alter ego is not Dr Faustus by any chance? Probably "just" your training and lots of experience.
